“Thank you for this beautiful and charismatic place. The Lamb Roast was amazing with breads, rice potatoes, sauces full of flavour and more than enough to feed even a big guy. Excellent service, music and atmosphere will take you to another dimension and make an unforgettable experience. It’s a truly hidden gem, come give it a try!“

“Great food, large portions. The new owners took heed from the past reviews and the portions are huge. The food is excellent and fresh. I highly recommend Donair Dude. And for those who need a midnight snack, they are open till late. Cheers!“

“Excellent atmosphere excellent service very good drinks and delicious authentic Greek cuisine. It’s like being back in Mykonos. Especially with the Uzo Mojito. Mmmmm good 😊“

“We had a large group from work that wanted to get together for dinner. Anatoli’s was the only place in North Vancouver that was willing to allow us to order from the regular menu rather than force us into a fixed meal with only a few choices. The atmosphere was great! The food was great .. everyone enjoyed themselves !! Thank you to the staff at Anatoli’s !!!“

“Perfect Persian food and environment! We’ll come back again.“

“We went there for dinner with a group of friends. It was my second time visiting. I ordered the Joojeh Kebab (Thai chicken) and kebab loghme which was good quality and served in a generous portion. However, one of the waiters was not polite —especially considering it was only 8:30 p.m. They seemed tired and a bit rude. Overall, I liked the food, but the restaurant needs a strong manager to better train the staff.“

“This is my all-time favorite restaurant. I was there with my friend Reg for lunch last Tuesday, June 3, 2025. I had heard that they were bringing back burgers and omelets and other favorite lunchtime fares on their new lunch menus. Me and my friend were treated to the best and freshest burger that I have ever eaten in my life. A delicious quarter pound beef patty prepared ground on the spot and prepared fresh for us. I thought I had died and gone to burger heaven. The burger was cooked perfectly with mozzarella cheese, onions, mushrooms, bacon, and lettuce and tomato on a fresh made in restaurant delicious bun. We were the first to be treated to these fantastic burgers and am planning to go back over the weekend and chow down on more burger comfort food. It was out of this world delicious. I had ordered a side of french fries before my meal so when my deluxe burger arrived I chose to have rice on the side. Great choice by me again! ! I just want to thank my friends at Andreas restaurant (North Vancouver) for bringing back burgers to their establishment. It was a bon bon day to have such a delicious lunch at my favorite food place and it was wallet-friendly as well as this big burger meal only cost me CA $15.50. Cheers and thank you for the great meal and service. My server Jason was amazing and super attentive. Can't wait to go back with my friends for lunch this coming weekend. Keep on churning out those delicious and daily fresh made burgers and I just might have all my meals there. Thanks again Andreas restaurant. See you soonest! ! Don Difrancesco“

“Such great food! The servers are second to none and the live entertainment on Saturday was amazing! 10/10 would do it again!“

“First time ever trying Armenian food. It was fantastic! Great food, great service. Thanks again. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“I went to your restaurant for the first time this Oct. The love you showed us through your food is beyond any words could say. The food was amazing, and the family-style service allowed me to try a variety of excellent Palestinian cuisine. I cannot wait to bring my family and eat again at your restaurant. I HIGHLY recommend your food and restaurant.“

“We ordered food several times for our office meeting lunches (up to 40 orders) and every time the food quality and quantity was amazing and exceeded our expectations. Alex was very accommodating and helpful while processing food order and figuring out the logistics. Thank you Hungry Zus, we will be back! Irena“

“Absolutely 10/10. Leisurely no rush dining , superb service ( the test : never realized my water glass was being filled ) . We ordered the Hydra favourite of lightly fried zucchini and eggplant , shared the sea bream family platter grilled ( the potatoes are incredible ). Sea bream beautifully filleted at the table . We finished with the olive oil chocolate cake - decadent . The cocktails are inventive . An overall incredible dining experience .“

“Homa restaurant has healthy and delicious food and its employees are kind, active and compassionate with new management. Thank you.“

“Friendly staff. Quick service. Tasty Food. Perfect breakfast spot. No wait on a Sunday late morning.“

“Brilliant Donair“

“Food = 5 Star 👏
Wait after food ordering = 5 mins only 👍
Parking = Nightmare 👎

Owners are great with Customer service.. but the employees rush you to eat fast and vacate the place.. Emps have an attitude, but all the 3 owners are awesome and have great smiling customer service. 👏“

“Anytime I'm in Vancouver this is always a spot to go to. Birthday celebrations, lunch date or romantic dinner. The food is always delicious, flavorful and perfect balance of spices. I always recommend this place for anytime dinning. The staff are amazing and the recommendations are on point. ny favorite time to go are evenings - intimate and cozy. 5 stars !!!!“

“They are the best food, for the best price, and top service. Our favorite place to go. Good old fashion personable service. Not fancy, but who wants fancy shamancy when you get the best of everything else.“

“It’s always awesome to have great and fresh food with amazing varieties of items of both vegetarian and non vegetarian that are sure to please everyone’s taste buds and one such place is there within easy reach and reasonable pricing. This is the place which has been in operation for several years now helping many office workers in the tower and many people in and around the area. The portions come with choice of meats and two vegetable items totally complimentary! For the carb, they serve hot rice with a surprising addition of a fried papad at no charge. This has been my ‘go to’ place for my lunch everyday for many years so long I was working in the tower office and now having retired visit this place without fail whenever I happened to visit downtown Vancouver. Great quality with no change in taste and flavour for years. Checkout their special item of the day, that is on every weekday Recommended highly!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable items - brussels, cabbage, chickpea curry, kidney beans curry, sautéed masala potatoes“

“More a 'go if you're in the area' rather than a favorite donair spot for me. Service is friendly. Regular platter portions is sparse, recommend paying for extra chicken to get a decent amount.

Flavor is good, has tabouli salad which is unique for donair places. Donair with decent portions is getting more expensive.“

“PERFECTION Fall off the Bone Lamb Shank $23!! WHAT? Is it 1999?

PATIO IS AMAZING SOUTH FACING SUN EXPOSURE with some pretty cute chicks (not included in photo)

Patio was so great I included a BEER with Lunch

Highly impressed with this FAST FOOD delivery time (I was fed and watered within 5 minutes) and sitting in the sun on yhe patio while my RIG parked across the street with FREE 1 HOUR PARKING

Barber Shop and 99 Tattooing next door let's find out

PS just did my Laundery 1/2 block away at Oak bay Laundry“

“Great food😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊“

“I absolutely love this place, the guy who runs it is super sweet and he makes the food super quick. I was a regular here for a while and he memorized my order which made me feel special. The prices are all super reasonable and you can get a full balanced meal that tastes good for less then 20 bucks. This is the only donair shop I ever spend money in.“

“The portion is 30% less than before. I have been ordering from this place for years, I understand with the inflation and everything that they have the price increase, and I'm OK with that, but I'm not OK with the portion size. I still do love the food is always consistent with flavor, but definitely not happy with a portion. The meat had very little amount in there, And I was gonna charge two dollars for extra hot sauce, which I'm OK paying, but the container was so tiny“

“A great late-night option for wraps and platters, my personal preference.

Chicken/Lamb/Beef platters are $18.49 each, and my portion was happily hefty when I picked it up in person versus ordering via DoorDash/Uber Eats. It comes with Greek salad, 2x domaldes, 2 potatoes, rice, and a heap of meat that gets covered in 2 sauces of your choice.

I also ordered a side tabbouleh that I wish was more dominant with parsley, but it’s still decent, and quite filling with the extra quinoa.

The location was super clean, and the customer service was sincerely warm and friendly. Not sure what’s with all the negative reviews, but in my opinion, if you enter with a smile, you’ll get served with smiles in return.

Thanks for feeding me!“

“I’ve been dining at Babylon Bar and Restaurant for many years, and it continues to be one of my favourite spots in the city. Located right on Denman Street near English Bay Beach, it’s the perfect place to sit, relax, and soak in the view and the incredible Vancouver ambiance.

One of the things that truly sets Babylon apart is the owner. He’s often outside engaging with the public, welcoming guests personally, and you can immediately see how passionate he is about his food and his restaurant. He recognizes me every time I come in and treats me like family — that kind of genuine hospitality is rare and speaks volumes.

The service is always top notch — warm, attentive, and authentic. As a vegetarian, I really appreciate how accommodating they are. On my last visit, he made me a crispy-style falafel wrap with fries, and it was absolutely incredible. The wrap was perfectly done, full of flavour, and the side of tahini sauce they serve with it takes it to another level.

If you’re visiting English Bay or just walking along Denman, I highly recommend stopping in. Great food, outstanding service, beautiful location — this place is a true Vancouver gem.“

“My mom and I stopped by for lunch while walking Granville strip. Super awesome food, giant portions, great ladies working there! Will be back for sure!“

“Fresh, authentic manaqeesh; friendly service.“

“Don't let the size fool you—this place has a huge personality. It’s a smaller shop, but the staff are absolutely fantastic and kept me laughing the whole time I was browsing. It’s rare to find a spot where the service is this genuine and funny!“

“Great food and AMAZING service by young man working evening (9pm) of July 17/2025!!! Helped me to get exactly what I was craving - checked with me to see if I wanted a bit more of this or that just to flavor it perfectly - wonderful attention to detail that I didn't even think to request customization on!! I've come before, this topped a previous great experience, it keeps impressing!!!!!“

“This place is always quiet and I can’t find out why!!!!!!! This is the hidden gem of Vancouver for Italian food and you wouldn’t believe how long it’s been open. I wish they had more visibility because I know the place would be packed. It’s so good.“

“Delicious grill shawarma and the ambience“

“We had a marvelous night here! We discovered this restaurant by accident while walking down the street. Even though it was very crowded, they were kind enough to accept us without a reservation. The food was delicious, though a bit too spicy for my taste. A beautiful girl performed an Arabic dance with a sword, and it was both professional and impressive. I will definitely be back! You should try it.“

“While taking a break from strumming, I had the opportunity to try these Mediterranean delicacies on Commercial Drive. They quickly drew my attention and I must confess they are truly delightful.“

“This five star rating is long overdue for all of your doner donair needs. After living in the area for over four years this place always delivers. With the option for a large portion for an additional price this place feeds the hungry .
Truly delicious food but well pickled vegetables incredibly seasoned meats great mixed sauces And friendly service with a smile“

“Delicious Chicken Wraps. Loves the sauce (tzatziki). Excellent service. Portions are filling.“

“Amazing food, quick in the kitchen and the service is outstanding. They have a very efficient system to ensure that their patrons are well looked after and have everything they need to have an enjoyable dinner experience. Five stars ❤️“

“😎 Been coming here since these folks took over, around 2010 or so. I do hope they are open again after their recent disaster.“

“Massawa Restaurant is such a hidden gem. I came here on a date with my boyfriend and we had an amazing experience from start to finish.

I ordered the lamb tibbs and my boyfriend had the chicken doro wat. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and the portions were very generous.

The atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and inviting, which made the whole evening feel relaxed and special. I’ve been looking for a great Ethiopian restaurant around the Vancouver area, and this place truly exceeded my expectations.

What really stood out was how the owner/chef personally went around the restaurant, greeting guests and asking how everyone was enjoying their food. That level of care made the experience feel very personal.

Highly recommend. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We had our holiday dinner party here with a group of 10 people. Making the reservation was easy. Service was phenomenal, food was great with large portions, and the atmosphere was exactly what we could have hoped for. We would highly recommend having your large group gatherings here. We will be back.“

“Enjoyed an outdoor wedding“

“We recently came here to celebrate my cousin’s 23rd birthday and had such an incredible experience. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, welcoming, and full of energy, which immediately set the tone for a great night.

The food was beautifully presented and packed with flavour. The salmon and the rigatoni were definite highlights of the evening—both dishes were cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious.

What really made the night unforgettable was the entertainment. It was lively, fun, and brought so much energy to the space, making the entire evening feel like a true celebration.

Although a small part of our order was missed, it ended up being perfectly fine because the portions were so generous that we were already completely stuffed. The evening was memorable and enjoyable, and we would happily return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun night out!“

“atención rápida , excelente servicio de Laura la chica de Brasil, comida sabrosa y a buen precio.“

“We shared this dish and it was really tasty.“

“It’s a Donair Shop. I usually just take away but the workers here are great. It’s a busy location, I go late at night and they are always busting and cleaning, always with a smile. Only needed to go once or twice to be treated like a regular and that’s always refreshing.“

“I must be honest I only buy Donair. But his is the best. Haven't found anything equal as good. His secret sauce makes him the King of Donaires. ❤️👍👍“

“Hello i visited this location a week ago at that time to males were working there it was almost closing time. The food was amazing, The falafel was fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside — absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the toppings were fresh. Great portion size and friendly service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Had an outstanding dinner here, easily some of the best Greek food I’ve had in the Lower Mainland. It honestly rivals the spots on the Danforth in Toronto. The beef and chicken souvlaki were perfectly cooked, moist and full of flavour, and the potatoes were next level. Great value overall. Thanks for making it such a memorable birthday dinner.“

“Anytime I'm in Vancouver this is always a spot to go to. Birthday celebrations, lunch date or romantic dinner. The food is always delicious, flavorful and perfect balance of spices. I always recommend this place for anytime dinning. The staff are amazing and the recommendations are on point. ny favorite time to go are evenings - intimate and cozy. 5 stars !!!!“
